Since the 1950s, copious amounts of per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)(dubbed
“forever chemicals”) have been dumped into the environment, causing heavy contamination …

Poly‐and perfluorinated chemicals, including perfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS), are
pervasive in today's society, with a negative impact on human and ecosystem health …

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation drives the net production of tropospheric ozone (O3) and a large
fraction of particulate matter (PM) including sulfate, nitrate, and secondary organic aerosols …

Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large group of manmade chemicals that
impose emerging environmental concerns. Among them, short-chain per-and …

Thousands of heavily fluorinated chemicals are found in the environment, impact human
and ecosystem health, and are relatively resistant to biological and chemical degradation …

This work investigated the potential of microbial communities native to an estuarine
environment to biodegrade enrofloxacin (ENR) and oxytetracycline (OXY). Sediments …

Life on Earth is known to rarely make fluorinated carbon compounds, as compared to other
halocarbons. We quantify this rarity, based on our exhaustive natural products database …

Fluorine forms the strongest single bond to carbon with the highest bond dissociation energy
among natural products. However, fluoroacetate dehalogenases (FADs) have been shown …

Although precipitation is considered to be the most important diffuse source of
trifluoroacetate (TFA) to the nonmarine environment, information regarding the wet …

Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a persistent and mobile substance that has been increasing in
